Back to basics

The Gorse Fox turned up in Woking, parked and then had to find his way to the Starfleet office. You can get to a point where you over-rely on technology. He left the car park through the the shooping centre and called up Google Maps to find the directions to the office.

There was no signal.

He tried his other phone.

Again there was no signal.

He stood there for a moment trying to remember the map he had looked at before leaving home. Then he looked up to try and get his bearings.

Ten metres in front of him was the building he wanted. In front of it was a great big sign. If he hadn't been so focussed on his new technology he would have found it a lot more quickly.
